It hasn't traded since March 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Across 1995–1999, sale prices on this property compounded at 15.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £127,000 sits 309.7% above the 1999 sale of £31,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£67/sq ft) was about 47.2% below the postcode norm. At 43 m² it sits well below the postcode median (66 m² across 8 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006.
